    Because the message from the Administration is that we have defeated the silent enemy. Faucci is basically saying its going to get worse then it is now when we hit Fall.
    "After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

    Because it's reasonably likely that we are seeing fewer cases than we otherwise would because it's summer, and as we enter flu and cold season where weather and/or behavior is more conducive to the spread of respiratory viruses, we could see a wave if there is still a large population susceptible to infection (which there presumably will be based on the current rate, unless we find out that a lot of people have cross immunity from other corona viruses).

    Historically, other Coronavirus strains are seasonal.

    Which is bad news that we are seeing the increase in cases NOW. If that is true, December to February will be very, very bad....

    If only there was some inexpensive, can be made at home device that slowed the person to person transmission to a very low rate....***
